BLSR was initially developed by Washinton System Center as an assembler
language
sample program to go along with a book they were writing about using the
Subsystem Interface. At the time,
IBM was desperately looking for "ESA Exclusives" in order to sell 3090 machines

I understand, but in this case the z13s is a supported processor for z/OS 2.5,
but is almost completely incapable of running z/OSMF. It can run z/OSMF, but
the response time is unacceptable. We finally got IBM to compare z/OSMF on a
z13s without any zIIP and they came back to say that the one
IIRC, Batch LSR was developed at IBM by the BCP team; SMB was later developed
by the DFdfp team. SMB is not BLSR under-the-covers, but it offers the same
advantages.
SMB is the more modern solution. It has worked wonders at my shop. Just mind
your REGION size. If you haven't converted some
Purchase of an Intel XEON system to run a Linux system with zPDT could be used
purely to run Z/OSMF. Would that be good enough?
I think that might be cheaper than real Z upgrades, but I have not done any
arithmetic on software costs.
z/OS volume images could then be transferred using FTP when nee
Yes IBM allows for soft capping but that doesn't take care of the problem in 2
ways. First the soft cap only reduces a portion of the software license fees.
Second, you still have the larger hardware costs of buying the bigger machine
just to kneecap it.

I did say "a small" system in the 1990s, not the smallest available. But
your 28X illustrates the point. Over the same period
Hello Mike,
Thank you for your comment.
But QUERY command doesn't support ODS parameter and HSENDCMD itself has
no option.
I have found the solution provided in HSM.SAMPLE.TOOL(QUERYSET) which
uses extended console support.

Doesn't IBM also allow software capping to a lower capacity than the
slowest uniprocessor through the operating system?
